Millie Bobby Brown, 21, was among several cast and crew members of Enola Holmes 3 who fell ill due to food poisoning during filming in Malta. Production paused briefly in mid‑June 2025—though nobody required hospital care—and has since resumed safely. During a meal break while shooting on location in Malta, several people, including Brown, experienced food poisoning symptoms. Seafood served on set was suspected to be the culprit. Production halted for roughly 24 hours to allow for rest and recovery. Cast members like Brown reportedly recovered within a day, enabling filming to pick up without further incident. To maintain the schedule, stand‑ins filled in for unaffected scenes while the main cast recuperated.

Even a single day’s delay in high-budget film production can ripple into scheduling conflicts, location issues, and post‑production timelines. Enola Holmes 3 is a high-profile Netflix sequel featuring Brown as both lead and producer. The franchise has a strong track record: the first two installments drew over 76 million views in their initial month. Filming began in April at Shepperton Studios (UK) and shifted to Malta in June to leverage its Victorian-era architecture for the movie's dark, period‑mystery tone.

With all affected individuals, including Brown, now recovered, production has resumed in Malta, adapting by reordering scenes where necessary. The film remains on track for its projected 2026 release. Netflix has not released an official statement, but insiders report a calm, professional response from the crew. Meanwhile, actor-producer Brown continues juggling her multifaceted pursuits. She and husband Jake Bongiovi recently introduced a new baby goat named Florence June on their Georgia farm—part of a wider rescue initiative that already includes over 60 animals.

She’s also made headlines for debuting a chic natural bob hairstyle, sparking positive fashion commentary. On the career front, Brown has two major Netflix projects underway: Enola Holmes 3 and “The Electric State,” both of which she stars in. The Electric State premiered in early 2025 under the Russo Brothers and had modest reception. Millie Bobby Brown’s brief bout of food poisoning in Malta was an unexpected hiccup—but with fast recovery and smart logistical management, production swiftly got back on track. Brown continues to thrive both on-screen and off, balancing high-profile roles with personal passion projects and family life.
